ABSTRACT
Introduction:
Single-bundle autologous hamstring tendon reconstruction is a surgical procedure used primarily in orthopedics. The aim of the study was to investigate the impact of using autologous hamstring tendon single-bundle restoration in conjunction with braided threads on both joint stability and clinical efficacy in patients suffering from posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) rupture.
Material and methods:
In total, 106 patients diagnosed with PCL rupture were randomly assigned to the control group and study group, each group consisting of 53 patients. The control group received autologous hamstring tendon single-bundle reconstruction, whereas the study group received autologous hamstring tendon single-bundle reconstruction together with braided thread treatment. The comparative rates of treatment success and satisfaction, complication occurrence, pre-and post-surgery joint activity indicators, gait parameters, knee joint function, and joint stability were assessed.
Results:
The study group showed a significantly higher rate of excellent and good treatment outcomes compared to the control group (p < 0.05). Twelve months after surgery, the study group showed significantly higher joint activity index, stride length, stride speed, and Rasmussen score compared to the control group.
Conclusions:
The single-bundle reconstruction combined with braided thread has good clinical efficacy in patients with PCL rupture and more effectively improves the patient’s joint stability.
